100 Things To Do with Your Full Tilt Money
The poker world caught a great break last week on news that Full Tilt buyers struck a deal with the DOJ thus paving the way for the company to be sold and for players all over the world to be reunited with their Full Tilt monies. The deal is far from done, but it looks like there's a decent chance that money many players thought was gone forever may indeed still wind up in their pocket. The news is akin to finding out that Elvis is still alive and has many players wondering: what should I do with this newfound money?
